Nineteen
Is not the age of reason.
I didn't have a reason
For setting you free.
I've seen
A lot of love go sour.
But that's not our love.
You see the problem was
I was only nineteen.
Yeah, I was only nineteen.
Finished up with high school.
Headed for a state school.
Wandered into you.
Big screen
Kissing in a movie.
God, you moved me around.
We got seriously down.
But I was only nineteen.
Chorus:
All I ever wanted to do
Was lie around in bed with you.
I was only nineteen. I was only nineteen.
I was only nineteen. I was only nineteen.
I've seen
A lot of love go bad now.
That's not how our affair
Would've wound up I swear.
But I was only nineteen.
Chorus
I was only nineteen.
